Apple has launched the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus just a week ago and we’re already seeing a lot of excitement and anticipation on behalf of customers loyal to the brand.

And while you wait for your pre-order to grow wings and arrive on your door step, maybe you want to treat yourself with some insights in the entrails of one of the newcomers, namely the iPhone 6 Plus. The curious folks at iFixit have already been tinkering with the larger version of the new handset, showing us what this baby hides under the hood. Well, there’s nothing really out of this world to report about. But I can tell you there’s 1GB of RAM in there and a pretty huge battery. Apple didn’t give us insights into the capacity of the power source, but thanks to the teardown we can now see it’s a 2,915 mAh one.

So those of you looking to purchase the iPhone 6 Plus should sigh in relief as the battery has been doubled compared to the iPhone 5s. What's more, the same power source proves to be a tad bigger than the Samsung Galaxy S5. However, the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 wins in terms of battery chunkiness, taking advantage of a 3,220 mAh battery.
